( 2 i.---The Gmette of the 21st , :ontains an article dated Catlit, 13th January, is hich is Ow ans wee given by Don Francia, Ciovernor of Paraguay, to Bolivar, who invited +int to contribute to the general independence of America. We shall give this answer, because it proves how little confidence Bolivar has been . able to inspire in that country:— " Fellow Countryman—The English, the Chilians, the Bra- Aliens, have maniferted the same wish as Colombia, but with put any other result than the confirmation of the principle on which is Youndial the happy administration which has delivered ;shitt province from such. rapine and misfortune. We shall never stlepart from this principle till the New World shall have reco vexed the tranquillity which it enjoyed before the appearance :Pt* the revolutionary Apostles, who hide, under the olive of .peace, their perfidious daggers, in order to bathe with blood the liberty which these ambitious men extol to us., But Para pay knows them, and as long as it is able, it never will rfe, trounce its system ; at least, so long as )( shall be at the head of . its tiovernment,' 1 shalt know hoir to employ the sword of jug ' *ice to make the sacred cause respected, which we have to de , fend. I beg Oral, sir, to preserve you many years. " kog. 21. 132,5. D. PRANCIA." The King has just banished to the distance of tIO leagues from Madrid, and the other Royal ,Palitce4, thealarchioness de Miranda, widow of tie Marquess of that name, who died two years m.o. The cause of this 'disgrace is the marriage, w hick, at the age of above sixty, she has con truted %I'M her steward, without the consent of his Majesty, who haf. even taken from her the power of disposing of Built of her property as is not settled.

By an Ordinance of the Bth of this month, the King of Spain has resolved, on the proposal of the Junta of Purification, that no person having a salary under Government shall receive his salary v‘ithout first presenting a certificate of purifica tion.

It is added, that the rebels were pursued and surrounded.

There is a report of fresh instructions sent by the Minister of War to the Genernl.in-eltief of the armies of the South and the West, and to Gene. rat Sabnnieff, who commands in Bessarabia, and which are in seine manner connected with the dispatches lately transmitted to M.

T HOM AS BnowN, having completed her term of service, arrived at Portsmouth from the South American station; 'bringing specie tti:the amount of 020,000 dollars. She sailed front the anchorage of Chorillos (about six miles to the southward of the Bay of Callao) on the 3th of August; from Valparaiso on the 29th of September; and Rio Jauciro on the 28th of November. When the Tartar left the Chorillos, the torts of Callao continued to be occupied by the Spanish forces, consisting of 14 or 1500 men, under the command of tieneral Rodil, whose peculiar character we have before noticed. No clout is entertained that he must ultimately surrender the possession oldie fortresses ; but that he will hold out with the same persevering obstinacy helms hitherto observed, until his provisions are to,ally exhausted, and the gar risons reduced to the extreme of necessity, is acknowledged by all who are in the least acquainted with his pertinacious unsubdued disposition ; and we are assured that he has still abundance of means in his power•to protract the siege. The different forts of Callao are in good condition, having suffered no material injury from the cannonading directed, at times, against them by the patriot troops, who have not yet heels able to bring their battering three within 800 yards of the fortifiea dims. Bolivar, with a part of the Republican army, was in Alto-Peru. It was expected that he would return to-Lima about the month of November. A hostile contention having • arisen between the States of Buenos Ayres and the existing tiovernment of Alto-Peru, as to the right of territory of the fine province of Potosi, the inhabitants claimed the privilege of settling the contest by their Own declaration, and unani mously decided in favour of the latter; au that Alto-Peru is now formed into a distinct republic, and called the Republic of Bolivar. The measures pursued by the Clititan liovernmeat are not likely to produce that happy effect on the minds of the people, so desirable in Republican states. They have issued paper money to great amount, and now exact, in payment for duties and other transactions in which they may be en gaged with individuals, one third of the suns in specie, and he other two thirds they receive in notes. This, amongst other things, has given rise to discontent and serious Cons plaints. An expedition watt nearly ready to Sail front Valpa raiso, to attack the island of Claim. The captains of the different vessels bad joined their respective ships, and Admiral Blanco was daily expected to . arrive to take the command of • , the Chilian fleet. it Is said that the inhabitants of the island wished to be attached to Chill, under the form of a federal government. The city of Truxillo, on the borders of the Co lombian empire, has changed its name to that of Bolivar. The fine brig Achilles, of 18 guns, formerly Spanish, is fitting out at Valparaiso, and now forms a part of the Chilian squandron. The line of battle ship Asia, thrmerly Spanish, is in the gulf of California, having been surrendered by the unpaid crew to the Mexican uovernmcnt. It is not true, as has been stated, that Sir Charles Stuart, Ambassador to the Court of Brazil, left Rio Janeiro in di a. gust, or that his Excellency is in disgrace with the Emperor of that territory. The fact is, that the Ambassador has completely succeeded in the different objects of his lois. scot ; and that his Excellency, on quitting Rio for the northern pars of the Brazils, received from his Brazilian Majesty repeated proofs of most courteous attention. We understand that Sir Charles, atter having visited the ports of Bahia and Pernambuco, will proceed to the River Plate, thence round Cape llorn ; more for the purpose of ascertaining the actual state of the different Republics hi the Pacific, than for accomplishing any specific diplomatic mission. The Em peror of the Brazils appears determined, at present, to prose. cute the war for the purpose of subjugating the Bandorian ter ritory ; but it is bald that the " Libertador Bolivar" has inti mated to his Majesty, that should the Buenos Ayrian Govern., mcnt solicit his assistance in rescuing them front the oppres.. sion caused by an unjust and fruitless warfare, agreeably to the avowed general principle which has regulated Ilia conduct in the emancipation of the different States of South America, he shall exert every means in his power to obtain this end. It is presumed that this intimation, coming us it does from such a man as Bolivar, of whose firm and determined cha. racier the Emperor cannot be ignorant, will have some effect in destroying the strong desire that appears to exist in hint for an unnatural and unlawful acquisition of territory of main. The empire of Brazil is already sufliciently,extensive ; and it is hoped that his Alajesty will not, by attempting to spread his wings too widely, find in the end that his empire has been a little clipped in its original lines of demarcation. On the 19th of November about I,2Uu inert embarked at Rio, on board of two 13raallian frigates, a corvette, and several transports, to be disembarked in some part of the River Plate, and reinforce the Brazilian forces engaged in the war in that quarter. The Emperor's troops had Lately experienced an important defeat; and it is not improbable that this reinforcement will arrive at the same ftte. His ftlajesty's activity anti unwearied diligence are generally acknowledged, anti some Ws may be formed 01' the manner in which he conducts the atildrs of the nation, front, the fact, that he was personally employed in the harbour of Rio, on board a steam-boat, till sun-set, to assist in surveying some vessels. His Majesty takes an interest in executing per sonally much of the detail of the public service. As it is quite necessary that a British vessel of war should be. constantly stationed at the anchorage of the Chorillos, the Eclair. arrived there on the 11th August, to relieve the Briton frigate, Sir Murray Maxwell, which ship made an extraordinary passage thence to Valparaiso in 11 days : an ordinary passage its 31 da'. The Blossom, 211, Capt. Beechey, had arrived front England. She was to complete her provisions at Valparaiso, and continue her voyage to Behringi Straits, touching at Easter Island, and Juan Fernandes, for the purpose of surveying those Islands. It: is supposed that the Briton will not take the usual course of go.. ' log to Panama, and the other ports to the northward, previously to her quitting the South American station for Englund ; in which case she may be shortly expected to arrive. The Blonde, Lord Byron, proceeds to England, via St. Helena, having landed the body of the late Ring of the Sandwich Islands. The Mersey, 211, Captain Ferguson, sailed front Valparaiso on the 21st of Sep tember, for Panama, to collect the remittances of the British merehantit ; and having performed that service, she will leave the Pacific on her voyage to England. The Cambridge, HU, Captain Moping, was at Conception, expecting the arrival of the Wellington, storeship, at Valparaiso, from which the dif ferent vessels of the squadron would complete their stores and provisions ; and the Caruhridge return to the roadstead of Callao, or the anchorage of the Chorillos. The Wellesley 74, (Sir George Eyre,) 'Jasseur, and French frigate Are. thusa, were lying at Rio when the Tartar lett. The Blanche frigate, Captain Mends, had gone round Cape Horn, to be attached to the squadron in the Pacific. The Doris frigate, Sir John G. Sinclair, was lying in the River Plate. The Dia mond, Lord Napier, left Rio for Bahia, on the 211th September, with Sir Charles Stuart on board. The merchant ship Mercury, hound to Trieste, was seen near the Line on the 29th December. An Indiaman, supposed to be the RecoVery, was passed on the 6th ult. in lat. about 12 deg. North. The following appoint ments had been made on the station :—Mr. Mundy, Midship.. titan oldie Wellesley, to be Lieutenant of the Eclair, vice sir Thomas Paisley, Bart. invalided, who came home passenger k n y t e h i r es T ey„ ar. O tar. Lieut. O. O. S. Gunning', from the Tartar to the instead of Lieut. Fitzroy, appointed to the 'Tartar; Mr. Gamier, Midshipman of the W ellealey, to be Lieut. of that ship, vice Wilmot, invalided, who came home passenger in the Tartar Mr. Pearce, Midshipman of the Wellesley, to be Lieut. of the Cambiidge, vice Barber, invalided as an hospital case; Mr. Simmontis, late of the eambridge, to be Purser of the Eclair, vice Starr, invalided. Dr. Ridgm ay, lute Physician to Sir C. Stuart's Embassy, came home in the Tartar. We mat not omit to mention, that the great Libertador of the South AmeriCan Continent, Bolivar, presented Captain 'l'. Brown, of the Tartar,' with his portrait, as a mark or his re gard and esteem, expressing, at the time time (through Col. Perez, his Secretary, his regret, trout being engaged in Alto. Peru, at not having a personal opportunity of taking leave of Captain B. previous to 'fiat Tartar leaving the Pacific. It should likewise be noticed, in Raul of the conciliatory anti equitable conduct of Captain 11., that the Royalist General (who now holds so perseveringly the forts of Callao, and who is time greatest enemy Bolivar has), refused a request Capt.. Brown made, to be permitted to purchase some ship's 'nova at Callao (which Inc was then leavlng)', hut frankly and ge. nerously replied, that as a mark of his esteem and fri.tuiship , for him, he should take whatever stores his ship required. A letter received (by the packet) dated Rio Janeiro, Dee. 3, state that the reintlircemeot of troops had sailed for the River Plate ; and that great rejoicings hid taken place on account of the Empress being confined on the previous day with a ban, after having had four daughters. According to what is rumoured about the Houses of Parliament and the Government of. flees, it is confidently believed that there will be no Funding of Exchequer Bills, and consequently no occasion for any Loan from the Bank of Enghttni or any other party, and this belief is strengthened by the declaration of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, that his linen. cial arrangements (formed, it may be remem bered, with reference to the Income and Expeu diture from 1824 till 1827 inclusive, have hither to so proceeded, in spite of the temporary shock hi the Christmas quarter, as fully to equal ids expectatipus,and calculations.

Mr. EVANS moved for a rule to show cause why the Under Sheriff of London should not return to this person the property levied unde r a wr i t o f : coati facia: for the fine Imposed on him by this Court, as the floe hail been remitted by his Majesty. Mr. Justice BAYLEY asked if the case had not been already before the Court. Mr. EVANS rerlied, that It had been before the Court in various shapes, and that an action had been brought against the Sheriff; but the Under-Sheriff himself was now desirous that the matter should be finally settled. Mr. Justice BAYLEY inquired whether the property did not ccn'ist of books of an objectionahle . cheracter ? Mr. EVANS replied, that the books were Of various charac. tors, among them was IVotton't Apology for the Bible, and other works of a perfectly innocent description. If the Court granted a. rola.. to show causo,.thw might, on the motion to make it absolute, so mould it as to limit its operation to books of an inoife.nsive kind. • . The Conn.!' granted the rule prayed, on an understanding that it might be modelled to suit the facts disclosed by the affi davits when cause should be shewn. The Court were occupied till 1 o'clock in hearing the report and arguments on the rule for a new trial in " Roe v. Brenton," the great Cornish mining cause. At one the Lord Chief-Justice retired to sit at Nisi Prim" in London ; and the remaining Judges heard motions which, with the exception of the above, were entirely destitute of public interest. 'rite three Judges will sit in the Bail -court, under his Ma jesty's warrant to dispatch arrears of term business from the 14th to the 18th February inclusive. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Fan. 4. WRIT OF IIIGHT—ANGEL V. ANGEL. This was a proceeding in a writ of right, brought to recover some lands in Yorkshire. The Sheriff had been commanded to summon " four lawful Knights of his County, girt with swords," to. come into Court, and make election of the Grand Assize, in pursuance -of which, four gentlemen (who were in realily Esquires), girt with swords, entered the Jury box. Mr. Serjeant VAUcitasr said, it was his duty to take what might appear a chivalrous course, for notwithstanding the gen tlemen summoned were armed with swords, he should chal. lenge all of them.—(A loud laugh.)—The Learned Gentleman then read his plea, which stated that the defendant challenged the said Edward Place (the find of the .four gentlemen) because he was not a lawful Kni g ht ; an d proceeded to argue that the gentlemen returned were not e li g ibl e, not possessing the t i tle of Knight ; and cited a case in the reign of Edward 111. where the Court refused to allow the return because they were not Knights. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE s a id, there t h e Sheriff had called the persons returned Gentlemen, here he Ins called them Knights. The word, Sir, was merely a term of respect, and not confined in a n c i en t usage t o Knights, but employed in ad. dressing all persons of high rank, except Bishops. " Sir Duke," was then a common expression ; "sly Lord" is com paratively reeent. Mr. Serjeant BOSANQUET argued that in this case the She. riff's return was conclusive, and could not be traversed. The Loan CHIEF JUSTICE said, it lied been decided that Esquires " were Knights in law for the present purpose.--» Almost all the County Members in the present Parliament, though called Knights in the writ, were, in fact, Esquires. In the -present day no one would presume to-say that the untitled gentry of England were less respectable than those who had received the order. of Kniglithool—The rest Of the Court con curred with his Lordship. The Knights were then sworn, and retired for half an hour, when they returned with a list of the Jury they had elected. Mr. S'erjeant VAUGHAN afterwards moved, cx.parte, that this rause should- be tried at the bar of this Court. lie stated that this.action was.brought in respect of three-fourths parts of certain light-houses,- situated at the mouth of the Humber, the tolls of which amounted tot - 0001. per annum. The stake was, therefore large, and the question would invole the construction of two Acts of' Parliament, and- might determine matters re lating to the interest of the Crown, or the grantee of the Crown, besides which, the terms of a will, drawn in a very ambiguous manner, must come under discussion. On these grounds, lie submitted the Court would be induced to grant a trial at bar. The a s k Js he had not given notice of this motion, he could- onlyf o r a rule to ahew c ►iuse why the trial should not take place at bar, and the rule was accordingly granted in those terms. CONSISTORY COURT, FEn. 4. WESTMEATH AND WESTAIEATH.. Dr. JzsarEtt, was heard this day on - behalf of th e M arqu i s of Westmeath, in support of his Lordship's suit for the restitu. tion of conjugal rights, and against that of the 31archioness for divorce.:. The Learned Advocatels Speeeh lasted exa c tly fi ve hours, until. the rising of the Court. This subject. lice been so often before the public, that it is unnecessary to detail minutely the topics of the speech. The Learned Gentleman concluded by denying that any evidence of legal cruelty had been fur, malted against his client, and: that there was not a shadow of proof as to the adultery. There w as a b un d ant testimony that Lord Westmeath was kind and affectionate. 'H e therefore contended that the , Alarchioness could' ,not have the -sentence she prayed for, but that his Lordship was.entitled to elaim , the restitution of his marital right's.
